Newlywed Cathy Jefferson is looking forward to a peaceful honeymoon on Long Island with her husband, Steve - until she discovers a body near their cottage.

As Cathy and her friends dig deeper into the case, they uncover a tangled web of suspects, from Brenda’s ex-husband to eccentric reptile rescue volunteers and hotel staff with plenty to hide.
 
The fifth book in Debbie De Louise's Buttercup Bend cozy mystery series, THE CASE OF THE REPTILE RESCUING RECEPTIONIST, will test Cathy’s sleuthing skills - and courage - like never before.

    "HE CAME TO WASHINGTON FOR BRRRRRRRRAINS. NO WONDER HE'S STILL HUNGRY. The undead have risen from their graves, and society hangs by a thread. But America's political parties aren't going to let a little thing like the zombie apocalypse get in the way of a presidential election. There are nasty whispers about the incumbent, though, and they have nothing to do with where he was born. The rumor: He's dead. Could a zombie be running for President? It's up to ace Washington Tribune reporter Jan Woods to find out. Cadaver in Chief, the new novella from New York Times bestseller Steve Hockensmith (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls), follows Woods on her search for the truth...a search that puts her up against the most dangerous ghouls in Washington. Oh, and zombies, too."

    It was his responsibility to fight for those who could not fight, punish those who needed punishing, and righting the world of all the wrongs—to Captain Vicarelli, that was his mission even out of the Corps. Once separated from the Marines, he took his mission to his home, New Orleans, rife with murder, rape, and crime. The Corps had trained him and trained him well. He was a skillful killing machine of unusual propensity. 
    There was nothing average about the man; he stood six-five and was a wall of powerful, rippling muscle. Honorably discharged, with unwritten speculation of PTSD from the psych community, the Marine pursued the life of a civilian. It wasn’t his fault that there was crime around every corner, but he took his mission to heart, protecting, punishing, and eliminating the threats. 
    Trinity was his one weakness. His entire essence craved her tight little body full of sexy energy. Her caramel-colored skin, waist-length black hair, and cat-like ebony eyes lit an unquenchable fire in his body and soul. If fate were a friend, she would be his woman one day. Night after night, he sat at the end of Louie’s Tap mahogany bar, sipping on his two-finger pour of Glenlivet and watching as she swayed to the background music while mixing libations for the clientele. 
    Spring break hit the city, and with it came hoards of college students. When the Ole Miss group arrived at Louie’s, he observed the young men strut like peacocks, trying to allure the naïve young women. He took note of Jessica Lambert, who was different from the rest of the girls. She didn’t flirt or appreciate the unnecessary pawing of the boys. Vicarelli admired her refreshing innocence. Appearances were not always as they seemed, even to the well-trained, observant eyes of the Marine Raider.

    Absolute Dark & Seductive | Spicy • A first-class page-turner that blurs the lines between passion, love & danger in a frightening way 
    "This is the third part of the absolutely erotic psycho-thriller trilogy by Robin Rafferty Paxton." 
    Forget everything you thought you knew about psychological thrillers. With "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" Part 3 of the trilogy, Robin Rafferty Paxton has created a work that pulls like a suction into the darkest corners of the human psyche - and only lets you go again when you have turned the last page... and even then, it won't let you go. He gets by without bloody scenes! 
    Even the title is a promise – and Paxton keeps it. This book is absolutely abysmal. It dives into depths you didn't know existed. It winds through a labyrinth of lies, obsessions, and hidden desires where nothing is as it seems. And it is seductive. Not only in the obvious sense – although the attraction between the characters is almost tangible – but also in the way Paxton builds the tension, how he plays with our expectations, how he pulls us deeper and deeper into the vortex. 
    The language is precise and atmospheric, the descriptions are so vivid that you can literally feel the settings, the smell of danger and the subliminal eroticism . "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" is not a book for the faint of heart. It's a psychological thriller that gets under your skin and captivates you at the same time. It is a book that will make you question your own abysses. 
    Read it at your own risk. But read it! 
    Warning: Not suitable for under 18s.
